Kevin W ★ 1 · Oct 2025
No running water, and no notice on the email. No fires due to no camp host made the stay cold and not the greatest. Worst camping trip I've ever had.
Laurette S ★ 4 · Sep 2025
Other than no running water and campfires, it was good.
Nichole P ★ 1 · Aug 2025
AWFUL! More like sleeping in an uneven parking lot. And without an on site host - the respect for one's neighbors is NON EXISTANT! Easily the rudest group of campers I have EVER experienced.

Not worth the drive.
